I'dve loved to hang out at Pancho's ranch, 'The Happy Bottom Riding Club'

I bought my A2 through the American Express catalog years ago and, you know what, I get a lot of compliments on it - probably because it's different - it has that ciggie pocket on the left shoulder. You just don't see that very often on a leather A2 jacket.

Rewatched 'Catch Me If You Can' on DVD last night.
It contains a bonus disc with interview and anecdotes by Frank Abagnale.
Utterly fascinating! One cannot condone his criminal behavior - but man what an exciting life!
A real life Walter Mitty with the chutzpah to really act it out...
I'll come visit, but only if there is a 'Buckley House' in town!!! (LOL)

I always try to pick up FLIGHT JOURNAL's quarterly specials on particular WWII aircraft.
Generally, each issue is dedicated to a fighter or bomber with articles and photos that give a
great overview and rundown on the aircraft. I've got quite a few now that I've collected over the years...
